NEWS: Japan's Video Game Rankings, July 4-10 [2022-07-16]

Not much of note this week, MH: Rise is still selling well, one of the few third-party Switch games that can compete against Nintendo own titles, Klonoa's sales seem low but accoring to some sources they're actually better than the Wii remake and it is pretty rare to see the Switch version outselling the PS version by such a huge margin, though to be fair the Klonoa series appeals more to Nintendo players, though perhaps this just will reinforce Namco's opinion that Switch players just prefer their family-friendly games and that there's no demand for more "mature" titles like Tekken, Soul Calibur or Tales of for the platform.
I don't know which PS game can take the top spot in the following weeks, these rankings are getting kind of predictable, this week there were just 2 PS games while the rest was dominated by Nintendo.
